on Citysearch Jan 14, 2009We've been here 3 times and only once was it slightly less than perfect! Best sushi in town. Sometimes the service is a little slow...but it's worth it! Update...the past 2 times have been very dissapointing. Staying... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 24, 2008We've been several times over the past year and it's always been excellent. I recommend calling ahead because it can get pretty crowded. (I have no idea when that other person went but they have been busy all but 1 out... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 01, 2008There aren't enough good things I can say about Nippon tei! First of all, I have been going there for over four years now and still crave it weekly! My sister brought me there over four years ago and I love it! I have... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 20, 2008The fusion dishes are big. Every dish comes from a lot of oil, they're very greasy. I had stomaches every time I left this restaurant. In terms of the sushi, the fish doesn't stick the rice. The rice is very tough and... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 07, 2007The sushi is just OK. Other fusion plates are below average. They're either too sweet or taste weird... Honestly, the fish for the sushi is not too fresh. Price tags don't match the quality of the dishes... Waiters are... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 28, 2007Though the warm sushi already seemed suspicious but I didn't think it'd turn out like that... I needed to take 2 sick days after my visit... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 15, 2007I went there last week to celebrate my little boy's birthday (our first visit), my family went home having a whole night of diarrheaa. I suspect it's the warm raw sushi... BTW, the order took more than half an hour... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 25, 2007Nippon Tei is one of my favorite restaurants in St. Louis, as I am a weekly regular. The sushi is excellent, the rolls are creative, and the staff could not be more friendly. Even though I am a regular, they make everyone... (more)
